Arbor Day.

Our last Legislature enacted a
law:-"That it shall be the duty of
the County Superintendent of
Public Schools of each County to
set apart some day in November in
each year as"Arbor day" in all the
public schools in the County that
trees may be planted around the
buildings that the grounds around
such buildings may be improved
and beautified; such planting to be
attended with appropriate and at
tractive ceremonies that the day
may be one of pleasure as well as
instruction for the young; all to
be under the supervision and d.
reCtiOn of the teacher who shall
see that the trees are properly Sc
lected and set"
In accordance with this law and
the suggestion of James Byars,
U. S. Forestry agent, Friday No
vember the 25th is designated for
this County, and in school districts
where no schools are being taught
at present, the Secretary of the
Board of Directors will please take
the proper steps to have the day
observed as contemplated in the
act of the Legislature.

Own and Manage Ranches.

II assure you,' said PROMINENT
cattleman to Republican representa-
tive the other day, "that Of all the|
failures in stock-raising made in thisl
Western country, not one of them has
been made by women. You may say
what you please about the gentler sex
not being able to rustic with the
stern necessities of bread-getting. but
you can trust the stock-women, sir, to
look after their own interests every
time, and never, to my knowledge,
has one of them been left. They are,
worth altogether several millions Of
dollars and they have got the clearest
heads and the best judgment as re-
CARDS managing stock that | have ever
seen displayed by anybody.
s'No, sir, never heard of a stock
woman failing in business yet, and ]
don't believe YOU ever did They take
their risks, Of course, but not nnad-
visedly. They know what they are
doing, and they invariably make in
stead OF losing. If You don't believe
this You can consult illl the stock
journals in tile country, and thev will
prove that what 4 say to You IS true. z
Are you personally acquainted with
many women engaged in the business
Of cattle-raising?' asked the reporter.
The cattleman gave Y long, low
whistle.
ssWell, I should think So" he said,
s.I've studied them for years. You
want to know what kind Of women
they arep I'LL tell you what sort they
are, young man; they're ladies; that's
what they are. Now, don't mean by
that that they would bc afraid Of soil
ing their hands if occasion required;
no, indeed; nor Of doing charitable
action which would necessitate some
personal exposure on their part, for
they are generous to 4 fault. What i
mean to say Is that they are as q rule
refined and intelligent women who
yad and think, and are capable Of
making a good appearance in society.

-WhY You EeeI


So weak and exhausted Is because your
blood Is impure. As well expect the
sanitary condition OF city TO be per-
feet with defled water and defective
sewerage, rs to expect such eompli-
Gated piece Of mechanism as the human
frame to be In good order with impure
blood circulating even to its minutest
veins. Do you know that every drop
OF your two or three gallons OF blood
passes through the heart and lungs in
about two and q half minutes, and that,
on its way, it makes bone and muscle,
brain and nerve, and all other solids
and fluids Of the body2 The blood is
the great nourisher, or, as the Bible
terms 1t,
"The Life of the Body"
Is it any wonder, then, that il the blood
be not pure and perfect in its consti-
tuents, you suffer so many indescribable
symptoms?
Ayers Sarsaparilla stands "head and
shoulder" above every other Alter
ative and Blood Medicine. As proof,
read these reliable testimonies:
e. G. Brock, OF Lowell, Mass, says:
Tor the past 25 years have sold
Ayers Sarsaparilla. In my opinion,
the best remedial agencies for the cure
Of all the diseases arising from impuri-
ties of the blood are contained in this
medicine"
Eugene I. Hill, NJ. D., 3S1 Sixth Ave-,
New York, says "As blood-purifier
and general builder-up of the system, I
have never found anything to equal
Ayers Sarsaparilla. 1t gives perfect
satisfaction"
Ayers Sarsaparilla proves equally
eficacious in all forms Of Scrofula,
Boils, Carbuncles, Eczema, Humors,
Lumbago, Catarrh, &c.; and is, there
fore, the very best
Spring and Family Medicine
in use. "It beats ALL" says Mr.. Cutler,

ISCRnEINCREASING,

The CHRONICLE has more than once stat
cd that il believed crime to lie on the dc-
crease in North Carolina. In tbs oplnioh
we have heard some Of our superior : our
iudpes concur. Al Durham court Judge
Philips took the opposite view. The Record
er quotes him as saying that the clergy had
proclaimed from the pulpit that we had
better and purer times; the press scattered
il about that we were improving III every
direction. and the politician told the peo-
ple from The stump that the State was
progressing as never before, aud that our
fathers were a kind Of old fogies, and that
these were the halcyon days. In proof OF
these assertions, the pulpit, the press, ana
the politician pointed with pride to the
school houses that dotted every hltI ana
valley aud. also. t. the numerous church
es. lifting their spires towards heaven
and their large congregations Of devouJ
worshippers. ministered 70 by the plous
and learned clergy, and, yet the fact re-
mained. that a, the Judges go from count!
to county holding the courts, the taet
was patent that everything was not gong
as smoothly as has been painted. The
stern fact remained that crime was on the
increase. and the great frequency on the
criminal dockets of cases of capital feIo
nies. did not argue much for the good o.
society
